As with Dual Destinies, we've all been looking forward to how the translators have tackled the challenge of translating names that are often more joke than name. This time, though, we've got six translations to look out for, not one!

This post will be used to gather names (be that of people, places, chapters, or things) from all six translated versions of the game. So if English isn't your native language, don't hesitate to contribute! If the name has a special meaning or joke to it, we'd love to hear that too.

Song titles from the sound test are appreciated as well, especially the traditional Ace Attorney ones - this is their first official translation!

Let's get started! I've already filled in most of the names revealed before release.

Just a few off the top of my head (I don't know the Japanese names, sorry):The minstrel is BardleyThe guy who pulls his beard is TuggitThe girl with the big dress and parasol is MuffetThe guy with the big pile of books is DeweyThe head librarian is Ridelle MystereThe bakery owner is Patty Eclair

First witch trial witnesses:Woman with goat=Mary (the goat is Snowy)Man dressed as knight=KnightleDrunk guy=Emeer (called 'Some Guy' at first)Other people:Victims in first witch trial=Muggs and Robbs (not sure which is which)English prosecutor=FlynchPawnbroker=PriceBarnham's dog=ConstantinePatty's cat=EveAlso, these aren't technically names, but whatever:Fire spell=IgnaizeDisappearing spell=DimereReappearing spell=AmereBook that transports them to Labyrinthia=Historia LabyrinthiaOrganisation that sent Phoenix to England=Legal League of Attorneys

From Witch Trial 2:The dead alchemist is Newton BeldukeHis butler is Jean GreyerlEmeer's full name is Emeer Punchenbaug the FirstThe teacher is Ms PrimstoneThe musician with the parrot is Birdly, and the parrot is CrackerMailer's first name is LettieThe gold spell is GoldorThe familiar spell is FamaliaThe portal spell is GodoorAlso, Eclair should be spelt 'Eclaire' instead, my bad

Can I ask, are you playing the game yourself, or watching a playthrough? I've seen a screen or two of video suggesting someone's recorded at least through the second witch trial, but I can't seem to find the actual video anywhere. (Unless it's a streamer.)

Hi! I've largely stepped back from C-R due to life stuff. Please contact one of the other staff members for help!

If I can ask two more things: what does Phoenix yell when you select a specific spot in a picture? And what are the titles of the Ace Attorney songs in the Sound Test? (Not the whole sound test if you don't want, just the 'standard songs' - so the last page of it.)

Phoenix says "¡Eso es!" ("That's it!") when selecting a spot from a picture. The track names for the AA themes aren't translated at all, but the Layton themes and the ones from this game are, which says a lot about the love and care that Capcom puts into translating AA to languages other than English :P

Oh, and also! Phoenix says "¡Muy buenas!" (which is just a way of saying "hi") when Layton and Luke first come into Patty's shop.

The (Versión "El caso inglés") part means they're used during the first trial, I guess; "El caso inglés" is the Spanish name of the first case in the game (before Labyrinthia). Every other track is from Professor Layton or unique to PL vs AA, and has the track name in Spanish.

Cool! Thanks so much for looking - I've been really curious about the official translations for the titles. Looks like most of them are in line with the common fan names (and we finally get an official word on the "Confess the Truth" tracks.)

More names from the Spanish version. I'm sorry for not knowing the original names, I'll try to describe the characters.

Spoiler:

Great Witch Bezella: Bruja Suprema Arcana

Johnny Smiles: Johnny FanfareThe witness from the second case who wanted to be an Inquisitor: Hidalguio (from "hidalgo")Mary and Snowy: Señora Capri and Copito (snowflake)The teacher witness in the third case: Miss Severiana (from "severa", meaning severe). Her catchphrase is "¡Vaya, vaya, qué barbaridad!".The witness in the last case who has so many wounds: Maltrech (from "maltrecho", meaning injured).

About the guards, i remember that the injured guy is named Ser Otto, the female is Lady Miranda, her two cohorts are Ser Vittore and Ser Bino and the short guy is Tezcapocaquecoatl. Yup, I remember that name.
